IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVICE

Read through all the instructions before starting to use the

dehumidifier. Keep this instruction manual in a safe place

for future reference.

1. Supervision is necessary when the dehumidifier is used

near children.

2. Do not use the dehumidifier outdoors.

3. Place the dehumidifier on a firm, even, waterproof

surface. Make sure it is standing securely so that the de-

humidifier cannot tip over or fall down. Water can damage

furniture and floor coverings.

4. Unwind the cord completely. An incompletely unwound

cord can lead to overheating and cause a fire.

5. Do not use an extension cord, a multiway connector, or

a continuously adjustable speed controller. This can cause

overheating, fire, or electric shock.

6. Connect the dehumidifier only to a single-phase socket

with the supply voltage as stated on the type plate.

7. Always switch the dehumidifier off with the power key

(2) and always disconnect the plug (13) from the power

socket when the dehumidifier is not in use, or when it is

moved, handled or cleaned. Do not tug at the cord to dis-

connect the plug. Do not disconnect the plug when the

dehumidifier is running. Always first switch the dehumidi-

fier off with the power key (2).

8. The dehumidifier functions optimally at a room tempera-

ture of between 13°C and 35°C. Optimal dehumidifying per-

formance is only achievable in the higher temperature range

(from 22°C) and with higher room humidity (from 70%).

9. Do not use the dehumidifier anywhere near easily

inflammable gases or substances, near an open fire, or at

a location where oil and water could splash. Do not spray

insecticides or similar substances onto the dehumidifier.

Make sure that the dehumidifier is not exposed to direct

sunlight. Do not use the dehumidifier in a hothouse or

near a bathtub, shower or swimming-pool. Do not put any

hot or heavy objects on the dehumidifier.

10. The air intake and air outflow vents (9+10) must

always be kept open during dehumidification. Make sure

that no objects can get into the air intake or air outflow

vents (9+10) . This can lead to overheating, fire or electric

shock. The dehumidifier must not be installed behind cur-

tains, drapes or other objects and obstacles which could

impair the air circulation. A safety distance of at least

50 cm from other objects must be maintained. In addition,

a safety distance of at least 60 cm from wet areas such as

showers, washbasins, sinks, bathtubs etc. must be main-

tained. A safety distance of 120 cm from the water supply,

e.g. a water tap, is necessary.

11. Do not remove the water tank (15) while the dehumidi-

fier is running. Water can damage furniture and floor-cove-

rings and cause an electric shock.

12. Wait for 3 - 5 minutes after switching the dehumidifier

off before you switch it back on again.

13.

Do not dip the dehumidifier into water or any other

liquids and do not pour water or any other liquids onto the

appliance or into the air intake and air outflow vents (9+10).

14. Clean the dehumidifier regularly, following the cleaning

instructions.

15. Always transport the dehumidifier in an upright posi-

tion. Before using the dehumidifier for the first time, leave

it standing in an upright position for 24 hours. Always

stand the dehumidifier in an upright position immediately

after transporting the appliance, and wait for at least 60

minutes before switching it back on. The water tank (15)

must be emptied every time before transport.

16. The dehumidifier must always be operated according

to this instruction manual. Non-observance of these

instructions can lead to injuries, a fire, electric shock or

faults in the appliance.

17. The dehumidifier is designed for private use indoors

and is not intended for commercial use.

18. If the power cord of the dehumidifier is damaged, it

must be replaced by the manufacturer or a repair shop

authorized by the manufacturer or by similarly qualified

persons in order to prevent damage.

19. Do not use the dehumidifier if it is faulty or could

show signs of damage, or if it is not functioning correctly.

Disconnect the plug from the power socket.

FIRST TIME OF USE

1. Please read through all the instructions before starting

to use the dehumidifier.

2. Unpack the dehumidifier. Remove all the packaging

materials and dispose of them for recycling.

3. Place the dehumidifier on a firm, even, waterproof sur-

face. Water can damage furniture and floor coverings and

lead to fire or electric shock. Make sure the dehumidifier is

standing securely so that it cannot tip over or fall down.

Observe the safety distances as given in Point 10 of

"Important safety instructions".

WATER DRAINAGE

The dehumidifier provides two ways of emptying the water.

PLEASE NOTE: Do not reuse the collected distilled water.

Water tank, 2.9 liters

1. When the water tank (15) is full, the control lamp (7)

flashes. The dehumidifying operation is stopped automati-

cally.

2. Wait for about 30 minutes before removing the water

tank (15), so that the remaining water can drip down into

it. Hence do not remove the water tank when the dehumi-

difier is in use or has just been switched off.

3. Take hold of the two cavities on the sides of the water

tank (15) and pull it out carefully with both hands. "P2"

appears on the display (5).

4. Empty the water only on the side opposite the swimmer

(19).

5. Now push the water tank (15) back into its original

position with both hands until you hear it click into place.

The control lamp (7) goes off. The relative humidity appe-

ars on the display (5).

6. If the control lamp (7) does not go off, pull the water

tank (15) out again.

7. Check that the swimmer (19) is correctly installed. The

swimmer must not be removed, because otherwise the

automatic interruption of the dehumidifying operation is

not guaranteed. Overflowing water can damage objects

and floor coverings or cause an electric shock.

8. Now replace the water tank (15) as described under

Point 5.

Continuous water drainage

If you wish to install continuous water drainage, please

proceed as follows. Please note: The dehumidifying opera-

tion is not interrupted in this kind of water drainage.

1. Make sure that the dehumidifier is switched off. Discon-

nect the power plug from the power socket.

2. Carefully remove the cover of the opening (16) on the

rear side of the appliance with a pair of pliers or a similar

tool. (Fig. 1)

3. Remove the water tank (15). Push the water tube (insi-

de diameter 16mm) through the opening (16) and push it

in. Press the water tube firmly onto the water connection

(17) in the appliance. Make sure that the water tube is

firmly fixed to the water connections and cannot become

detached. (Fig. 2)

4. Put the water tube directly into a water drain. Check that

the pipe is sloping downwards throughout its length, and

is not buckled, knotted or blocked, so that the water can

drain off freely. Check the safe and leakproof position of

the water tube regularly.

5. Push the water tank (15) with both hands into its origi-

nal position until you hear it click into place.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

1. Push the power plug into the power socket. Do not

touch the power cord with wet hands. The power control

lamp flashes.

(9+10) are open. The air intake and air outlet openings

must always be open during the dehumidifying operation.

3. Press the power key (2) to start using the dehumidifier.

The power control lamp (6) lights up. The degree of relati-

ve humidity actually present in the room appears on the

display.

4. The dehumidifier is programmed ex factory to a relative

humidity of 60%. To lower the degree of relative humidity,

press this key (4); to raise it, press this key (4).

You can select between 35 and 80 % RH.

5. When the dehumidifier has reached the programmed

humidity, it interrupts the dehumidifying operation and

only resumes it when the relative humidity in the room

exceeds the programmed value.

6. To allow the dehumidifier to operate continuously, press

this key (3). The relative humidity can be programmed

with these keys: and (4).

7. Use the transport handle (11) and the transport castors

(12) to transport the dehumidifier.

8. To support the dehumidifying achievement, close

windows and doors in the room in which you are using the

dehumidifier. When it is used e.g. in the laundry room,

make sure that no water can drip onto or into the dehumi-

difier and observe the safety distances as described under
